After a successful partnership with the Fife Riding Club in 2017, we’re working together again this year and will hold the Gymkhana at their excellent club facilities in Glenrothes.

The 2018 schedule is available at the link below. It includes the usual classes for all ages and abilities with a range of heights and classes. This year we’ve also added a couple of team competitions so why not get a group of friends to enter as a team to get an extra chance to win one of our many trophies! Details are on the schedule. Entry fees have also been reduced this year for advance entries, and there’s even a special offer to be found!

The weather was very kind to us for the Letham Gymkhana this year, and our first event in partnership with the Fife Riding Club was a great success. Veteran Woodrow Snips showed the young ones how it was done, and swept up all the points trophies on the day, sharing the games trophy with Merri!

This year’s Gymkhana is being run in partnership with Fife Riding Club at their club field in Glenrothes (just off the A92 at Western Avenue). Fife Riding Club have some great facilities with eight acres of grass, two large all weather arenas, a spring turf arena and a sand schooling area. The club holds regular events for members and a number of open shows throughout the year. For more info and directions go to http://www.fife-riding-club.co.uk

The Letham Gymkhana schedule is now ready, so you can start planning for the day. Remember that you can save a bit of money by entering in advance to get a reduction in your entry fees.

This year’s Letham Gymkhana will take place on Sunday 21st August 2016 at the The Howe Country Centre in Giffordtown, courtesy of Highfield Equestrian.

It’s a fun and friendly show, with classes to suit all ages and abilities: Jumping, Turnout, Riding Club horse/Pony Club pony, games, and Handy pony.
Perpetual trophies awarded for the winners of every class, and for overall points, and best Veteran (over 20yo)

Entries will be taken on the day, but if you enter in advance you’ll save a few ££, and save some time on the day!

Schedule and entry form will be available here soon, note the date in your diary in the meantime.

email gymkhana@letham.org.uk if you’ve any queries or if you could spare some time to help out on the day.

We’re sorry to say that the Letham Gymkhana is taking a break this year (2013).

It was going to be a lot of extra work to find a new venue, after the closure of the Howe earlier this year.

So we took the decision to skip a year, but are planning to get things going again next year, 2014. Watch this space!

If anyone would like to help us organise the show, or has any suggestions for a good local venue to replace the Howe do let us know! While we have a couple of possible venues, we’d be keen to hear of any other ideas.

Thanks for your support in previous years, and hope to see you again next year.
